That is the great part about this wonderful nation of ours...if you dont find what you are looking for you are free to go somewhere else. |
Several quick points.
1-We are not for everybody, no forum is. We try to allow for a wide array of viewpoints, so that people with stock Boxsters can live preacefully with the weekend track guys. 2-I still don't know what a poser is nor why I would care. 3-It says alot about us that this post did not devolve into name calling for the most part. 4-We don't do street racing here. Any guys who love to run on the weekends on the streets are not welcome to talk about that. All in all, I find the group pretty delightful most of the time, certainly compared to some of the other forums I frequent. |
Boxsterz,
I am a little confused here. Would you mind explaining to me exactly what your definition of a "Poser" is ? I have been a member of this forum for a year and a half, and I visit everyday for information and entertainment. I have met some great people on here, made some good friends, and learned a lot about a car that I love very much. I try and help out whenever I can to pay back those that have helped me if I can. I guess I am unclear ? Could you give me an example of what exactly a "perfect" forum would entail ? Thanks, Nick |
I think what boxsterz is getting at is that he is tired of people posting there opinion if it conflicts with his own opinion, like he stated about the PSM post. Perhaps, we should never post in response to peoples questions because we are not as knowledgeable as him.
If you have a problem with this board just leave no one is stopping you, but I don't see why you have to insult the entire board to do so. (Also, what I think he means by poser is that - We sometimes post on threads that we are not knowledgeable about to help and give advice, we're posing as knowledgeable racers, or mechanics, etc.) |

Whatever.......pure nonsense. This is a great forum --- plain and simple. If you don't like it, then upgrade your life, your car or your attitude and move on. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: |
yeah i would have to agree, it is a weird thread to start.
there are forums out there for technical information, we all know about it. i just love this forum here, check it out every day, in my free time, and sometimes not even free but still come and check it out. like Nick said, i met some cool people on this board, and not just that, but also happened to go to class with a fellow member that i would never talk to probably, or notice, but since we both share a"stock/slow/non 911" boxsters, were all good and its nice to see a familiar place. i just think its cool that people on here dont act like little kids and name-call everyone, including the thread starter. it is definitely different than other forums, so either you like it or not, so you are free to stay or leave. also, just look at the number of posts of people who replied to this, and then go to a lets say renntech forum and check those same peoples numbers, and that will show you something... |

Let's face it, there is only so much you can do to the boxster as far as performance goes other than swapping out the engine as a last resort. So if your saying that boxster owners and members on this forum talk more about astetics than performance upgrades, then maybe you should have bought a Honda Civic. As boxster owners most of us like the car the way it is and comes from the factory. Not sure how we are all posers. This forum is for helping out people who have questions about their boxster. No one is forcing you to stay on as a member. :troll: |

I choose this site more often than others. I just love to drive this little car and I love hearing the stories from others who love driving theirs. I am older than most on this site and am far more interested in function than automotive fashion. To each his own. Regardless of experience, everyone has a right to express their own opinion here. That we don't always agree is a good thing. The diversity keeps things interesting. This is the fun Boxter site. If it doesn't float your boat... move on.

yeah, he was still around after that.....altho the defeat of MNBoxster would be more culturally impressive than beating the French huh CJ :D
you see man, I bit my tongue when I read that the first time but you see where people like him like to go when they are messed with :) if you can remember the whole race thread thing....oh brother.... anyways back to this post, I will say I went back to the PSM thread and found it pretty boring....it looked pretty simple..llike a billion other threads.....I will agree we have some big arguments that some owners show preference based on what they have even if they didn't experience the alternative first hand 1) 986 vs 987 2) wheels style/size....dj hates my boring "everyone" has them 19's :D then he goes and gets some of the baddest wheels I've seen (RUN DMC bad), I still have to see them in person.. 3) apparently PSM, hey I got it came with the car 4) winter tires, my favorite.....the times I've seen I drove a blah with this and that and can say, or the best is some members from places like california saying the boxster will do this and that in the snow....really? lol.... but now I admitt I am a poser who simply loves how his car looks and zips around effortlessy, now does anyone know where to get some nice quality painting done to my calipers? calibers? whatever they are....and you thought I was kidding when I said poser :D |
